Yeah, I still have this gathering dust as a VHS tape of the actual broadcast. They have the individual tracks available on ITunes, so I'll scan those at my leisure and see if anything stands out. For the most part it's the same old tired setlist they've been handing us post-Wyman. If I remember the highlight of that tour was the mini-acoustic set. Maybe there's something decent there.

On the issue of quality, I decided to to compare Tumbling Dice from the new Uncut and the LaughingSam mix. I only played the first minute so if someone else has time to dig deeper please do and share your findings. Using the program Spek the Uncut version has 20khz compared to LaughingSam at 16khz. With Nero Sound Waves I can see there is almost no brick walling while LaughingSam has some. Just listening I can hear the instruments clearer (including Keith). Also LaughingSam version sounds noisier to my ears. I did however notice some drop outs in the guitars and agree Micks voice is a bit high on Uncut. However I prefer the new release. To each is own but I thought I would share this information.

I hope this isn't the wrong way to ask about official stuff but can somebody post the extra dvd songs to youtube. I bought the album but I dont have Shattered, Out Of Tears and All Down The Line. Didnt mean to offend anybody, I love this site, Jacksonville here I come! Thanks frtylicks

Rockman"So Flood and keefriff are tit men ………"Flood:"No, I'm actually an ass man, but I won't pass up a good pair of tits…"

Come to think of it, I think most of us Stones fanatics are ass men...? Something to do with that low down stuff we all love..

Now how about the ladies on this site, what do you prefer when it comes to us gentlemen??

Considering the mix, maybe it got to do with the different amps and pickups. For instance, the Junior Single Cut Sunburst '57 that Keith uses got a very different P-90 sound than his other two TV coloured ones (56's if I remember correctly). Also his Tom Anderson used on Monkey and Beast got a different sound than the ones he is using nowadays, the TV 56 Single Cut and Black 355. But considering the great mix on the San Jose '99 release it is strange that they didn't get that dangerous "crunch" on this one?

Thanks. I wanted to do the same thing and compare I Go Wild from the new VL Uncut and the single version. If I have time, i'll do it. But I can confirm that the mix is much better on the single. For instance, a few riffs are inaudible on Uncut whereas everything is crystal clear on the single mix. Not to mention the vocals or the drums. To be continued...

Maybe it was mentioned somewhere on this thread, but is it truly the case that there is no BluRay/CD combo of "Uncut" in the U.S., only imports? My local (last surviving) music store looked it up on their system and told me it was only available as DVD/CD in the States....so I bought it that way. What's confusing is that it looks like Amazon has U.S. BluRay/CD combos, but I'm uncertain because Amazon has (in my experience) NOT had the greatest grasp on format differences and has been rather loose with their product descriptions at times.

Agree that Amazon US can be vague regarding the latest DVD/CD combos. I believe the only option is Blu-ray, I have Blu-ray.

That's funny, I remember I got my (bootlegged) DVD of the show in Kuala Lumpur in january 2004. Hilarious!!! Must've been from the same source and warehouse!!

Got mine and listened the other day. While there are a few tracks that stand out (I think it’s a stellar Before They Make Me Run especially), I have a hard time with some of the half-assed-ness of a number of tunes that stand out in this. Sympathy, for example, starts and ends so quickly it’s as if they’re just try8ng to get it out of the way— Also sounds like the guitar solos are not really properly rehearsed, as K+R seem to collide instead of give each other space. Monkey Man starts out sweet, but then the drums come in too fast and ruin the feel, and Keith can barely keep up with him. It’s one of my favorite Stones songs ever, yet they cannot seem to put anything into it on stage. The climax, “I’m a monkaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay....” is always so subdued and tame. I know they’re not in their twenties in 1994, but they were every bit youthful enough to put a little more heart and soul into these songs. A number of them seem especially phoned in in this release, auditorily. And sadly, I feel the guitars are mixed too low in much of the duration, which unfortunately brings Chuck Leavell’s overemphasis on the right third of his piano right up front, way too often. Street Fighting Man should NEVER have cutesy, festive, tinkering, high piano notes at any point. I loved the two (!) VL shows I attended in ‘94, but this release highlights all that has been wrong with the Stones live shows from ‘89 onward, imho.

Blue ray/cd combo is available in US ....I picked mine up in local record store outside Philadelphia
